Polymeric is proud to announce the development of MicroShield, a reliable UV Curable, Anti-microbial, Protective Coating for a wide range of applications. The MicroShield coating typically used in architectural, medical and industrial applications can now be easily implemented into unlimited new markets and applications. MicroShield is especially well suited for labels and decals used in the food packaging, medical and pharmaceutical market. This coating exhibits excellent adhesion to an extremely broad range of materials and surfaces that require antibacterial or anti-graffiti type performance. MicroShield has passed JIS Z 2801, AATCC Method 147 (inhibition) and AATCC Method 100 (kill). Tests demonstrated both inhibition and kill with no growth or pathogen survival where the coating came in contact with the micro-organisms.
